I have been reading about various options for receiving sat TV in our motorhome and am now totally confused.
I have a digital TV and a Sky+ box and want a sensibly priced aerial to use in France and Spain.
I know that a fully automatic system is available but I cannot afford the ridiculous prices.
Can someone advise me what the best option is within £500 total cost please?

Got to be the Maxview Crinkup !!!! Only takes a short time to set up and can be used in all France and some of Spain...
Otherwise a stand alone dish and a tripod stand..

I'm the same... Dont want to spend a fortunte on an automatic dish..
Wife makes the tea, I align the dish.. Simples.... !!

The maxview crank up works well all over france and we get it to work down as far as Villa nova in spain on the med coast.

Hi Lee,

It doesn't have to be a Maxview Crankup. It could be one of >>These<<
It used to be a lot cheaper from the manufacturers in Denmark, when the £ was good against the €.
We use one, and I am now getting a signal within seconds, and usually quicker that the auto dish set ups. This ability has been enhanced greatly by binning the Pace Sky box in favour of better receiver. Wink

Jock.

If you have budget of £500, def go for something roof mounted, you'd soon get fed up with dish on tripod, setting up, storing, etc...
